THE MATEHIAX FOR OFFICER*.
It is of the utmost importance to the fu
ture safety, welfare and success of our vol
unteer regimen Is, that they should be prop
■erly officered It is not every one who
aspires to command a regiment that is fit to
... do so. The soldiers of a regiment, if they
are wise, will not select their regimental of
ficers on the ground that they are “first rate
clever fellows, ” generous, brave and patri
otic. These qualities are indispenaible, but
officers must also be men who have the re
spect and confidence of their Boldiers in all
matters which require care, judgement and
military ability. They mnst be sharp of
eye,quicS of decision and of ready rescourses.
There are' men whose previous avocations
and habits of life render them eminently tit
to oommand ; men of administrative abili
ty, and who have been accustomed to direct
important matters—to control men placed
under them, and to take charge of and be
responsible for the lives and prosperity of
many persons. The habits acquired in cer
tain positions where orders have to bo giv
en and obeyed promptly, are valuable in a
military point of view. The conductor of a
railroad train, tor instance, gives his order,
“.all, aboard, ” a word and a wave of the
hand is at once obeyed by the officials un-
V I.*
w- .
t, i.
der him, and everything in the routine of
his duty is done with military promptness
and exactness. The habits ot command
amoved in sqoh positions as this are most
valuable in a commanding officer of a mili-
tary force. Such a man first knows his du
ties; he has confidence in himself: and
those under him have confidence in biß
sagacity, prudence, foresight and ability to
carry them through difficulties and dangers
of all kinds. The great advantage which
such men possess over others, is that they are
disapUruirums.
Men too, who }iave seen service, are man
ifestly better fitted for positions of command
than those who have not. They know how
to treat men in camp or field. They know
what is necessary for their welfare, and they
know in what?the neW recruit requires to be
instrue.tod.and in what his previous habits
ofTite ought to Vie restricted.
Where men of the character and acquire
ments such as we speak of can be obtained
as officers of regiments, the soldiers are do
ing themselves, their comrades and the glo
rious cause in which they are engaged, an
irreparable wrong byjnot electing them.
To make good soldiers, thorough disoi
pline is necessary, and to make effective
ones, the greatest care must be token that
they '-are well provisioned, well clothed,
well protected, and checked in all disposi
tion to expose themselves unnecessarily, or
to injure their [lowers of oqdursnce by ex
oeeeesof anv kind.
Officers must be men of courage, temper
and disciplinary ability to bring their men
np to ihe standard of perfection. The stand
ard of qualification should be the standard
by which a regiment should select j their offi
cers. It is the next thing to suicide tor a
regiment to select an unfit officer merely
because of his personal popularity. The
personal courage and bravery of those who
have volunteered to serve their country in
this conflict is a glorious prestige of success.
of every man is with the cause
and -there will be no backing down. But an
intelligent, competent and skillful com
mander, is an absolute neoeesity to secure
that unanimity and power of action, that
thorough provision for and care of men, that
thorough discipline which can alone re o
der a regiment at once conscious of its
power, able to perform all its duties, and
moat reliable on the field of battle.
Tins is no holiday service which the brave
men of Pennsylvania have entered upon,
and let them not entrust their own lives and
the great results to which they have devoted
those lives, in the hands of incompetent offi
cers.
Between General Cameron, Secretary of
War, and Governor Curtin, a very import
ant telegraphic correspondence has taken
place on the subject of changing the tenure
of those who have enlisted for three month*
to three years, or during the war. In the
present position of affaire, and as the crisis
is developed, the War Department finds
that the tenure of three months will be of
Httle service to the Government, if the
regiments thus formed are to be disbanded
at the end of that period, and the govern
ment consequently left without the support
of an adequate army at the commencement
of the proper season for operations at the
South. We understand, in faot, that Gen.
Cameron was donbtfnl of the practical uses
,of the three months enlistment, justly al-
it would require almost that
titne to organize, equip, and render profi
cient any roroe of raw reoruits—and since
it has become the policy of the government
to posh this war in the most vigorous man
ner to as speedy a ooDoluaion as possible, it
most be supported by the people in a like
vigorous and confident manner’
... In order to secure the sneoess of the ten-
T ( JWP of enlistment fixed npon by the War
JJejtfrUnent, Gov. Curtin has issued the fel
jOTrtrig circular letter to the Colonels of reg
iments. _ There can be no doubt that the res
ponse will realize all that is expected by
fthe federal government from the citizen
soldiery pf Pennrylvania:
i ®|iVT have been requested by the Secretary
.cf\Wa* to let the regiment* now In the ser
vioe-ofrthe State, know that it is “ preferred
to- have all the regiment*'already mustered'
into service for three month*, which are no| ac
tnally aent forward, re-mmtored into service
for three year* or during the war, should they
be willing to do»o. ” I therefore deem it
proper to direct that you immediately ascer
tain that preference of your regiment upon
tht. question, and communicate the result
forthwith to me.
Those who do not desire to re-enllst for.this
additional period, can be formed into?- regi«
menu, or have such arrangements made 1 ' as to
enable them to retire with honor, in accor
dance with their enlistment.
I capnot., refrain fjom saying jthat. it would
afford jpe pleasure to see the regimen t*to
additional
dunce of con tinned devotion to their cottniry;

work yourself. The local reporters of newß-.
papers are, unfortunately tor the public, a
ready medium for promulgating unnecessa
ry and unjust complaints.
The community here had supposed that
the very high character of the gentlemen
appointed as a committee to distribute relief
to the families of volunteers, who might
need it, was an ample and sufficient guar
antee, that such funds as came into their
hands would be distributed with the utmost
justice, fairness and propriety. But we are
sorry to observe that complaints have ap
peared in the local department of public
newspapers qf this city, which are entirely
unjust, and the tendency of which is to do a
serious injury to the generous efforts which
are being made for the relief of such of the
lamilies of the volunteers as may need it.
r:MAT- 11,
We are quite familiar with the action of
this committee, and know the character of
the gentlemen who compose it, and in the
■estimation of all who know them, their ac
tion will be sustained without reference to
the opinions of either newspaper editors or
reporters.
' The object of this fund seems to be mis
understood. it is not intended-to place the
'families of volunteers in a better pecuniary
■condition than they were before their heads
jleft for the war. It is not intended to main
jtain those who are able to maintain them
selves. It is intended to relieve those who
are deprived ot their means ot Bupport by
'the absence of the male members of their
families.
j The number of applications for relief is
{large, and the sums which those applying
■think they ought to receive, are entirely be
yond the reach of the resources placed at
the disposal of the Committee.
These unjust and irticalled for complaints
in the newspapers prevent the libera! pub
lic from making their contributions, and
furnish an exruse for a certaiu class to with
hold their aid.
As yet, this Committee have a very small
[amount in their hands. The collecting com
imittees seem to find it easier in some of the
wards to hunt out subjects for relief and
send them to the Committee, than to raise
funds for the > Committee's disposal.
The Committee are acting with wisdom,
caution and proper prudence, in the disj-o
sitton of the funds placed in their handß.
{They are gentlemen who are able and wil
j lmg.to devote their time and services to
the public gratuitously, and to their judg
ment the citizens are willing to leave the
whole matter, it is a sacred trust which
{they have undertaken and it will require
; thousands of dollars per week to prevent
destitution among those who are left lie
hind, and coingilaini* based U)siii the re(>-
resentationa of those who are nut destitute,
should never be permitted to form the basis
of newspaper articles.
GOVERNOR’* MERsAI.E,
W'e invite especial attention to the mes
sage of Governor Curtin which we publish
to-day. It is clear and satisfactory on the
subjects of whioh it treats. While it is cer
tainly proper that the Legislature should
place every requisite safeguard over the ex
penditure of the public money, the people
at the same time expect of this body prompt
action, and such action as will facilitate and
sustain the arrangement entered into by the
Secretary of War, himself a Pennsylvanian,
and the Governor, for the purpose of giving
the whole fitHtce of Pennsylvania to cruali
oat this rebellion.
The men whom the Governor has called
to his aid in this moat important business,
are the right men in the nght place. He
has avoided political partisanship in their
selection, and while the Legislature does its
whole duty to the people of the .Stale and
the cause of the country, its action should,
in no degree, be influenced by personal
feeling,or grounded on false,and at this time,
unimportant issues, or tinctured with cap
tiousuesa or disappointment. In its present
business the Legislature must act for the
people, the country and the cause—not for
partizan feeling nor the personal considera
tion of any man.
CiOV. S. W. BI.ACK.
The following extract from a letter from
Gov. Block, of Nebraska, shows Lhat his heart
is with his country and his love for his old
comrades is sts strong as ever:
“I am detained here by the non-arrival of
my successor. Tou may imagine that It goes
hard with me to be here, or anywhere but
there, when “The Greys,” and “The Bcott Le
gion,” and "The B)ues”are again mustering
or marching to the field.
Gov. Sanders will be along in the course of
a few days, and 1 will then start direct for
Pittsburgh.”
The most mischievous doctrine of the r.res.
ent day is the famous Calhoun theory of Stale
Bights. It has misled more Southern men
from the flag of the country, and Induced
more resignations among army and navy n«-
cers bailing from the slave States, than all the
preaching of all the orators on the wrong side
of the questions The unanimity of the twenty
loyal States (n supporting the Government is
a proud assurance that this perverted idea of
the doctrine of State Bights has effectually
psrilhed, at least so far as they are concerned
until South Carollnacan establish her sense of
the alleged injuries received by the South at
the hands of the majority of the American peo
ple, into an invasion of what is flippantly call
ed Statqjiights, there is pot a northern states
man whowlll not disregard her counsels and
laugh at her example. Our understanding of
State Bights is a far different one. When the
General Government ceases to protect the in
terests of all the Stales, and discriminates in
favor of one to the exclusion of another mem»
her cf the Confederacy, then it is woll to fall
back upon our reserved franchises, and to as.
sert onr independence at every hazard.
But no such complaint can Justly be made
by the South. As Judgo Douglas said in his!
splendid speech at Chicago, on the Ist of May,
“ there has not been a day, from the time i
when George Washington was inaugurated as
the first President of the United States down
to this moment, when .the rights of the South
ern States stood firmer under the laws of the
land than they do ” And yet we see ■
ofheers of the army and navy, and other
branches of the public service, throwing up
their commissions, aDd taking arms against a
Government they were sworn to support, be
cause South Carolina, and a few other Com.
monwealths, insist upon asserting that the
South has been interfered with by the North 1
When a citizen takes an oath to support the
Constitution, he acknowledges his allegiance to
the whole country, and the Government there
of ; and whether he takes this oath in Virginia
or in Maine; whether he takes it aa a repre"
sentative of the people, or as a public servant
in an executive or administrative capacity, or
as an adopted citizen, bis first obligation is to
the entire Government, to the laws made by
Congress. All other pledges anil oaths are in
ferior and subordinate. When General Soott
was appealed to by the Secessionists to add hie
brilliant refutation. to. their daik conspiracy,
his answer was, “ I am a citizen of the United
states, I owe. every obligation, to the United
Stater, and I will contend for thCUnitetf State*
against any single member of the Union taking
up arms against the General Goverriideht, even
Iftfjat member should be Virginia herself.”—
Wecommend this frank and expliolt construc
tion of State Bights -to those who have*been
misled by the Calhoun South Carolina reading
of it. —Philadelphia Pree*

Tbe gentleman found himself compelled to

ance to the bitter end seemed the prevailing
expression among these troops, as our infor

little said of the contemplated raid on Wash

it was necessary that tor in as ter General

fice in that city, lie was furnished with rx>ms
rent free by Singleton A. Mercer, Ksq , Frvs
ideot of the Farmers and Mechanics’ Bank,
and, as fully sot out tn l * retort, accepted the
voluntary service of & number of patriotic
gentlemen, whom, bv their names, he has
properly commended. During the time ho
was in Philadelphia he was, from necessity,
discharging the duties of Commissary in that
city, as well as those of his own office.
1 am happy to say that the transactions of
that Department are fully before you in the
report of General Hale; and bearing in mind
the necessity for immediate action and the ab
sence of previous organisation, 1 cannot too
highly oommend the conduct of those patriotic
gentlemon who left their private affairs and
devoted all their time and energies to the ser
vice of the State.
No arrangement has yet beeu made to corn*
pen sate the gentlemen referred to. Many of
them refuse to receive any compensation. Borne
of them ought to be reasonably paid for their
services, and if I have the power, compensa
tion will be made to them.
In answer to interrogatories which i put to
the Secretary of War, and which answers were
contained in a former message to you, 1 learn*
ed from the War Department of the United
States that the accounts of the Commissionary
and (Quarter Master’s department of this State
would be mainly reimbursed by the United
States Government. To a large extent these
claims have been already formally recognized
by the officers of the National Government.
And the accounts have been, and will be so
kept, and audited, as to establish their validity
beyond all question.
1 deem it proper to communicate at this timo
to the Legislature, as no opportunity may bo
afforded, the fact that the Cincinnati Socioty
of Pennsylvania have sent me a check for five
hundred dollars,to be used towards arming and
equipping the volunteers of Pennsylvania. It
is proper that some official notice should be
Uken of Ibis patriotic munificence; and if it
should be the plea»ure of the Legislature, 1
will b® much pleased to be directed In its ap
propriation.
I take this occasion to say that the period ot
time has arrived tor prompt and decisive ac
tion; and the Government should be equal in
aJaprity and seal to the spirit which animates
the people, We are now called upon to meet
the most causeless and Wonderfhl conspiracy
recorded in history; In the name of Constitu
tional liberty and for , the progress of civiliza
tion and Christianity, this groat people are to
vindicate before tho world that our government
has inherent strength for its own perpetuity,
and that we have the power and tho will to
transmit to posterity its blessings. The unity
of the millions of our free and loyal people, pro-,
sents to the world a fact without a parallel in
moral sublimity and devoted patriotism in tho
history of the past or the present. Let us all
act in harmony, and so administer this Stato
Government* that dur-bfavo poop la may go to
the field organized, armed and equipped, and
in such numbers as to assure tho speedy over
throw of this altrocious conspiracy and rebel
lion, and tho condign punishment of the guil
ty; anil may we by prompt and courageous ac
tion avoid the culpability of sending companies
to the field without that full preparation
Which the future will inevitably require.
Gentlemen, you represent a loyal constitu
ency; you are called upon to legislate in a try
ing emergency for the State whose history is
without staiD; our ann&lß and our traditions

carrying out tha;objects thereof, and who arc
the persons so appointed.
Extract from the Journal.
E. H. BAUCH, t'Urk
To which I have the honor to reply.
I recognize, to its fullest extent, at all times
the neceasity of prompt and satisfactory answers
of all departments of the government to the
requirements of the representatives of the peo
ple; and especially where they are entrusted
with the disbursement of public money.
When the call was mado upon Pennsylvania
to arm a part of her people in the service of the
General Government, to meet a sudden and
extraordinary emergency, we had not such an
organization of our military force as was ready
to answer a call into active service. Your reso
lution of inquiry comes to rar, when all the de
partments of the government, and all persons
called into its service, are entirely engaged in
the organization and equipment of the quota of
militia from Pennsylvania under the requisition
of the General Government.
In answer to your interrogatory as to what
agencies have been employed, 1 have the honor
to reply that I appointed K M.. Biddle Ailju
tant General, B. C. Hale, Quarter Master Gen
eral, and Wm. W. Irwin, Commissary Oeo
eral; and that all purchases and disbursements
have been mado through their various Depart
ments and so far as it was possible, under my
immediate supervision. The reports of these
officers, mado to me on a request to that end,
w*bieh accompany and are made part of this
communication, will present to you tho d-dails
of the administration of their office, so f*r as
practicable; and it is due to these geniieni'-n to
declare that tboir conduct of their respective
Departments meets my unqualified approba
tion.
I called to my assistance Col. Tbos. A. Scott,
to whose valuble labors 1 am much indebted.
He continued to aulal me until he was called
into the service of the Federal Governmen*.—
I then invited CoL John A. Wright and B. Bid
dle Roberta to active service near my person
Except Col. Gibison J. Ball, who served me
in the same capacity during the recess of the
Legislature, 1 have not owployed any other
persons in tho Executive Department beyond
the constituted and ordinary officers of the gov.
ornmonk No compensation has been paid
theae^enilemen.
Borne Of them, I know, will not accept of
any; and I cannot too highly commend to
you, and the people of this State their patriot
ism and fidelity.
Although your resolution of inquiry was
directed to me, and it might have been suffi
ciently answered by my referring you to tbc
auditing and paving Departments of tiio State
for particulars of expenditure. 1 have obtained
through tho kindnoas- of tho Auditor Gein-ral,
copies of all his vouchers for dUburpomenis
and a statement from tho Stale Treasurer of
the amounts paid by him.
A large amount of bills has been furnished
to the Commissary General, for iho camp at
tho soal i*f government; the prices of articles
furnished havo only been .settled in iho bill*
furniibed by the Auditor General, those un
paid will be supervised, and. ii necessary, cor
rected by the Commissary General sad Audi
tor Gen oral, before paid, under a »y*Unu to
which I adverted in my luefisagc preeetilod to
the Legislature at the opening oi ibis *j/ocinl
session, as being calculated to protect the id.
teresU of the Slate in those transactions. Knr
the number of persons employed, and other
details, 1 refer you to tho rtqiorts of ihe.iO <iffi,

CALHOUN AND’ljlS OISfifIION THEORY
HOW IT HAS BEEN CARRIED OUT.
LETTER IRONSIDES.'’
in view of the complete*' fulfilment of the
Calhoun theory of the ftotfth controlling the
country through the Democracy, and that fail
ing, the attepted dismemberment of the Un*on,
the following letter will be found of deep in»
terest:
Bordentown, May 4th, 1861.
Afy Dear Sir : Agreeably to your request,
1 now furnish you with the reminiscences of a
conversation which passed boetween Mr. John
C. Calhoun and myself, in the latter part of
December, 1812, after the Decleration of War
by the Congress of the United States against
Great Britain, oo the Bth of the June previous.
On the assembling of Congress, in the early
part of December, I founy that an important
portion of the leading Democratic mem be df
Congress had taken up their quarters at Mrs.
Dushby’s boarding house; amongst whom was
Mr. Calhoun, a new member ot South Caroli
na—and, I believe, this was bis first appear
ance in the House of Cepresentativea. In con
sequence of this, I arid LieuL Uidgley—gay
confidential officer—and tho first Lieatenant
of the frigate Constellation, of which vessel I
then held the command, end was preparing for
sea at the "Washington Navy Yard—left our
lodgings at Strothers, and obtained board at
Mrs. Buahby’a with them. Bidgley was a
witty and able talker, who ooula aid me in
demonstrating the necessity for, and tee high
puiicy of, a formidable naval force wherewith
to carry on the war with England, which I
considered conld only be done with effect
through her being victoriously struck at on
an element over which she deemed herself sole
mistress. This appeared to me to constitute
her most tender point.
By this movement, I found myself unjudi
ciously located to enable me to urge upon Con
gress any patriotic measures which seemed
best calculated to meet and discomfit the self
sufficiency and arrogance of our oppressive
enemy.
Mr. Calhoun's age, 1 thought, approxima
ted my own, which was then thirty-four, and
he being a man of the highest order of talent,
and representing a B!ate in our Union which
scarcely ever permitted themselves to be rep
resented by inferior ability iu the National
Councils, I could not have oommonced myobn
ject with one more fitted for tho purpose I had
in view. Ho was also a high-minded and hon
orable* man, kind and friendly, as well as open
and confiding, to those ho deemed worthy. Wo
soon formed an intimacy, and 1 had frequent
ly long conversation® with him on the war,
the subjects relating thereto, and matters
growing out of its existence—the navy being
the most prominent, the gun-boats, the raer*
chants’ bonds then on tho tapis in Congress,
and others of political or minor intorest.
Gno evening. I struck on the divided views
of our sectional interests of the war ; stated
to him that tho opposite feelings on this sub
ject had puzzled me exceedingly, and asked
now it was that the planting States were so
strongly and decidedly in favor of war, while
the commercial States were so much opposed
it'.' With the latter Boction of our country, it
seemed to me that the punishment of England,
through the m&dium of war, ought to meet
their highest approbation, and call for their
greatest efforts, as they were the greatest suf
ferers, through her instrumentality and power
over mir comraercsal affairs since 1792, which
wt-re an arrogantly urged by plunder and im
pressment on the highway of nations, while
tho Southern portion of the Union lal fj!t
bat little in comparison. I observed with
great simplicity:—‘*You in tho South and
Southwest are decidedly the aristocratic por
titn id this Union; you are so in holding per
sons in perjKduity in slavery—you are so in.
every domestic quality: so in every habit of
your lives, living and actions; so in. habits,
ciidoma. iniorcoursos and rnannars; you neither
work w;Ui your habits, head, or any machi
nery. but live and have your living, not in ac
* irdaiKf w iLb tho will of your Creator, but
b) the 6west of slavery, and yet vuu assume
all the attribute**, professions and advantages
.-.f Democracy."
Mr Caihouu replied : —“i see you speak
through lUn head of a young statesman, and
from iho heart uf a patriot, but you lose sight
of the politician and the sectional policy of the
pf'. pb* 1 admit your conclusion In respect to
us Southrons; that we are essentially ansto
cratip 1 cannot deny, but we can and do yield
much to Democracy. This is our sectional
I oiicy: we are from necessity thrown upon and
solemnly wedded to that party, however it may
occasionally clash with our feelings for the
conservation of our interests It is through
our affiliation with that party in the Middle
and \\ t stern States, we control, under the
Constitution, the governing of these United
States ; but when we cease thus to control this
nation through a diijciQtei Democracy, or any
materia! obstacle in that party which shall tend
to throw us out of that rule and control, we
*bnll then reeort to the dissolution of the
Union. The compromises in the Constitution,
cinder the then circumstances were sufficient
for our fathers, but under the altered condition
of our country from that period, leave to the
South no resource but dissolution; for no
amendments to the Constitution could be reach
ed. through a Convention of tho people and
throe-fourths rule.
1 laughed incredulously, and said: “Well,
Mr. Calhoun, ere such can take place, yoa
and 1 will have been so lone non est that we
can now laugh at Its possibility and leave it
with complacency to our children's children,
who will then have the watch on deck.”
Alas’ my dear sir, how entirely were the
views of that statesman" cir
cumbscribed by the patriot feelings of his
heart. What he then thought an impossible
lty for human hands to effect, for ages and
ages to come, he now sees verified to tr.tj let
ter, as predicted by that far teeing statesman,
John C. Calhoun. Even this noble Republic
is disrupted—its Constitution rent into shreds
and tatters by party follies and the wickedness
of its people's selfishness. Had they but in
herited a moiety of the virtues of their fathers,
who bled and impoverished themselves through
a long and bloody war to establish the inde
pendence and liberty, welfare and happinee
of their posterity for all lime to corao—bad
they worshipped the true and living God, in»
stead ol the “almighty dollar" tney would
not now have beheld the millions of patriots
arming for the strife against traitors to their
country, to the Constitution and the I&wb—
once more to baptize in blood, for Liberty's
sake, the blessings which rational liberty ac«
cords under our Union.
Had a prophet arisen in 181:2, and predicted
as John C. Calhoun did, nothing short of
Divine inspiration oould have given evidence
to his foreshadowings. Alas I 1 have lived to
see its accomplishment. He has gone to the
tomb of his fathers, the pride of his section
honored for bis talents and for his effects in
council, while your humble servant still
lingers in the brink, under the national anath
ema of degradation, as a reward for many
years of faithful services, which degradation
was accorded him simultaneously with his
reaching the bead of the service, to which his
whole life had been devoted. You will see,
my dear sir, 1 have no disposition to “ bury
my light under a bushol, " but will ever bo
ready to accord justice when justice is due.
Thus in death we show thB ruling p&sßion
stronger than in life ; and as it is with India
viduaU, so It is with nations—the blackest spot
found in the heart is ingratitude
Accept my assurances of regard and respect,
CHARLES STEWART.
Gro. W. Childs, Esq., Philadelnhia.
Thjehjb is a singular difference between
tlio glorious speeches of Stephen A. Dou
glas, and the messages, of Jefferson Davis.
The latter reminds us constantly of the
“Mock Duke/’ in the play. Douglas be
lieves that we have a Government; believes
that the right of secession is a pestilential
heresy, and denounces with ineffable scorn
the whole idea that the rights of the. South
have been interfered with. Davis thinks
the Union a mere rope ofsand, to be destroy
ed by any single member of it at will and
pleasure, and treats .all doctrines of sub
mission to the will of the majority with
contempt. Douglas stands with the old
fathers of the Constitution; Davis with the
authors of those new constructions of that
instrument which have made the whole
Secession movement so contemptible.
It is said the fit of secession which recently
afflicted Maryland, cost her over a cool $1,000,-
000 Experience is a dear school, but some
people will learn in uo other.

there is no excuse at oil for not providing them
